What colour result can I expect from SHAGUN GOLD basma?

Basma is a plant-based indigo leaf powder for darker, cooler-looking hair tones. The final shade depends strongly on your starting colour, previous colouring and whether you use it alone or with henna.

How should I prepare and apply this basma powder?

The powder is typically mixed with warm water into a paste, then applied to hair as a botanical colouring layer. A strand test and sensitivity test are important before full application.

Is basma suitable for grey, lightened or chemically treated hair?

It can be used on different hair types, but grey, lightened and chemically treated hair may react less predictably. Testing first is the safest way to avoid an unwanted shade.

What Is SHAGUN GOLD Basma

SHAGUN GOLD Looduslik India basma juustele, 25 g by Shik is a plant-based hair colouring powder made from Indigofera tinctoria leaves. People usually choose basma when they want a darker herbal hair dye option and prefer colouring without synthetic pigments.

On its own: basma tends to give cool dark tones.
Combined with henna: traditionally used to create deeper brown to black shades, depending on starting hair colour and method of application.

How It Works

Finely milled indigo leaf powder releases plant pigments when mixed with warm water into a paste. These pigments coat the hair surface and gradually build visible colour. Unlike oxidation dyes, basma does not work by strongly opening the hair fibre — instead, it forms a botanical layer around the strands, which is why many people notice that hair looks smoother, fuller and glossier after colouring. This visual effect is especially appreciated by those whose hair appears flat, porous or lacking shine.

Basma and Henna: A Traditional Pairing

What makes this product interesting is its simple composition: one ingredient, one traditional colouring material, in powder form. Basma has been used in South Asian beauty traditions for a long time, most often paired with henna because the two plants complement each other.

Henna lays down warm copper-red pigment.
Basma adds depth and coolness, helping balance the final tone.

The result is usually more nuanced than with many conventional colourants, and it can look especially natural in brunette shades.

Who It Suits and What to Keep in Mind

This herbal hair colour suits people who want to:

Refresh their shade
Add richer depth after henna
Experiment with a more botanical approach to hair appearance

Final colour can vary a lot depending on your original base, previous colouring history, grey percentage and processing time. Because plant dyes can behave differently on lightened, damaged or chemically treated hair, it is wise to do a strand and sensitivity test first and use extra caution around the eye area.

Customer Questions

SHAGUN GOLD basma is made from Indigofera tinctoria leaf powder and is usually chosen by people who want a darker herbal hair colour option without synthetic pigments. Used on its own, basma tends to give cool dark tones. When combined with henna, it is traditionally used to create deeper brown to black-looking shades, because henna adds warm copper-red pigment while basma adds depth and coolness.The result is not fully predictable in the same way as a conventional oxidation dye. Plant pigments coat the hair surface and gradually build visible colour, so the final look can vary depending on your natural base, how porous your hair is, whether it has been previously coloured or lightened, the amount of grey hair and the processing time. On very light, highlighted or damaged hair, results can be more noticeable or less even, so a strand test is especially important.If you want a natural-looking brunette result, basma is commonly used after or together with henna rather than as a single-step product. If your aim is simply to cool down or deepen an existing herbal colour, basma may help add a darker, less warm appearance. Always test on a small hidden strand first and judge the colour after it has settled, because herbal colour can continue to look slightly different after rinsing and drying.

SHAGUN GOLD basma is a finely milled plant powder, so it needs to be mixed with warm water to form a paste before use. Add water gradually and stir until the texture is smooth enough to spread through the hair without dripping. Because plant powders can stain skin, towels and surfaces, use gloves and protect the hairline, clothing and bathroom area before applying.Apply the paste evenly to the sections you want to colour, making sure the hair is well covered from root to ends. Uneven application can lead to patchy depth, especially on grey, porous or previously coloured areas. Avoid the eye area and rinse immediately with plenty of water if the paste gets into the eyes.Before colouring all your hair, do two checks. First, carry out a sensitivity test on a small area of skin to see whether your skin reacts. Second, do a strand test on a hidden section of hair, particularly if your hair is lightened, damaged, grey or chemically coloured. This shows how the powder behaves on your own hair and helps you decide whether to use basma alone or combine it with henna for a more balanced brown-to-dark result.

Basma can be considered if you want to refresh your shade, add richer depth after henna or try a more botanical approach to hair colour. However, hair history matters a lot. Grey hair, lightened hair and chemically treated hair often have different porosity from untreated hair, so plant pigments may attach more strongly in some areas and less evenly in others.On grey hair, basma is often used with henna in traditional herbal colouring routines because henna contributes warmth and basma contributes cool depth. Using basma alone may create a cooler dark effect, but the result can depend on how much grey you have and how resistant those strands are. If your hair has been bleached or highlighted, be especially cautious: very light or porous areas can take up plant colour in a way that looks stronger or cooler than expected.A strand test is the most useful step before full application. Choose a small hidden section that represents the hair you want to colour, apply the prepared paste, rinse and dry it, then assess the shade in natural light. If you have recently used chemical colour or plan to use one afterwards, it is wise to ask a professional hairdresser for advice, as mixing different colouring methods can affect the final appearance.
